In March 2007 Venezuelans voted in Socialist and Cuban lackey Hugo Chavez as president.
11 years later the country is near collapse, the people are starving and the Marxists refuse to relinquish power.

The average Venezuelan today has lost 24 pounds since the food shortages began.

Western media refuses to focus on this tragedy because they all supported this far left regime.

Now Socialist Bernie Sanders wants to bring this destruction and suffering to the US.The Hill reported:

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is set to announce a federal jobs proposal that would guarantee a job with at least a $15-per-hour wage and health benefits to every adult American “who wants or needs one,” The Washington Post reports.

The senator is still in the early stages of crafting the plan, according to the Post, which would provide a job or required training for any American.

Sanders’s office has yet to release the details of the plan’s funding, but previous large-scale projects proposed by the Vermont progressive have involved ending tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans and large corporations.

The Vermont senator joins two other possible 2020 contenders, Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who have also expressed support for similar proposals in recent weeks.
